Hope
dangles on a string
like

People
People
People
Pennies

the shine of it has caught my eye.

Can I
hold your hand?
Strangers
bump
along
but

I'm right, swear I knew it all along.

My eyes are the best things about me,
forget plus size
forget it all

I'm seeing in me now the things you swore you saw yourself.

Just one
human
to
another,
just one

vindicated

thought.
